the whirlwind Community Chest
campaign.
Significant that the work is to
be done with vim, vigor and vit-
ality. Have your cash donation
ready, or check made out, and just
hand it to the boys when they call,
thus giving them a shove to hurry
on to the next.

thc first period with a score of t>,

the second. Thc Buckaroos won
out in the third. Both Breckenridge
scores were made by passing, as
also Svas thc scorc of Ranger
made the Bucks heaving being
done by Marvin Newberry and
Wendell Moore. Both times the
passes werc to Harold Thompson.
A crowd not so lijrge but with
plenty of lung power witnessed the
game.

wiif tell you there were two. But
they are out now. One was pur-
chased by the Abilene Public
School system and the other • by
llardin-Simmons University. For
$72.50 each, about half price, we
believe, as skeletons go.
If you were thinking of buying
a skeleton you missed this chance
from thc Ft. Worth regional office.
(Hope that is not Just rattling dry
bones).
w beg pardon. In
"Seen or
Heard" yesterday the ntfme
J. B. Skinner was repeated. An
error. It should have said "Mrs. J.
B. Skinner a surgical patient at
Westside" and the "baby born to
Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Carter a boy
and not a girl."
IIIK wolf hur.ters nre out at it
again and thc sound of thc
hound is being heard In these parts.
Northwest Itoas Wolf Hunters
Association held their second an-
nual wolf hunt on the Fred For-
man ranch in Throckmorton county
recently. Friday night was the on-
ly one of the threee nights set
aside good for running and four
hundred hounds were turned loose
and 16 wolves taken.
Farmers an ranchers werc said
to be grateful and the turkeys con-
siderably relieved.
A wolf hunter is an addict like o
golfer or a follower of other
games. He likes to sit by thc glow-
ing camp fire of a cool night and
say "listen to Old Blue—he's out
in thc lead. Hear that pup--hc's
gonna make a Rood one." j vrnpH Will finpak

Thc Yellow Jackets have a horde
of letter men back this year and
Stcphenvillc has been reported all
excited believing they pre able to
take thc measure of the Buckaroos.
Thc band and cheer leaders will
be present to furnish music and
encouragement.
The Buckaroos in meeting Pas-
chal. Abilene, Wichita Falls and
Graham have gone through four
tough games and should be sea-
soned enough to give a real ac-
counting of themselves tonight.
Prison Employes
Visited Goering
Nuernberg, Oct. is <d;> —
A cannel of communication be-
tween Hermann Goerings suicide
ccllblock and thc outside world
was disclosed today when German
employes of thc prison said they
had been permitted to leave it
daily sincc Oct. 6.
German help around thc cell
block in which Goering killed him-
self had been understood hereto-
fore to be limited to the prison.
But today spokesmen for thc 21
employes in* cell block C told cor-
respondents that thc restriction
had been off sincc 10 days before
thc executions.
Meanwhile, two top American
prison ofticials denied that the
bulky Nazi's body bore any scratch
or other sign that the poison cap-
sule had been concealed under thc
skin of his bulky abdomen.
TilF state highway department
has granted permit to build
thc road from Eliasvillc to South
Bend and Breckenridge is left in
the lurch.
This was thc expression of Dis-
trict Attorney Ben J. Dean this
morning. And it means just about
what he said with jrcfcrencc to
trade here from Eliasvillc. For a
number of years the Improving if
thc corduroy road cut-off from
Eliasvillc has been talked and at
times more gravel put on It. Now
It is going to take more than talk
and gravel to hold thc Eliasvillc
trade.
HENRY Nahm of Breckenrldgc
went to the public library
here the other day. They had In
a number of new books. One of
them was written by his broher,
Milton C. Nahm, professor of phi-
losophy at Bryn Mawr. In all he
has written four books. His "Three
Lecturers \n Aesthetics" in the
July 6 Issue of thc London Times
was given a masterly review. Too
deep to go Into here. Among other
things thc Times writer called It
a book of great learning.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 18
Secretary of State James F. Bo-
nes will tell thc American people
tonight that if the world is to live

At -the same time. It was learned,
his nation wide broadcast will
make clear to Moscow and thc
world that the United States can-
not compromise her principles of
fair play to all nations—large and
small in wilting peacc terms.

ney * not likely to make money
nor to find much fun In life—
Chjttjes M. Schwab.
Cattle trucks jammed the
routes to Texas slaughterhouses
Thursday.
Skyrocketing prices drew big
ranchers and small farmers, some
with only one cow, to Fort Worth,
San Antonio and Houston.
Trucks lined up for two miles
before thc Fort Worth stockyards
In a near-record rush.
More than 200 trucks werc count-
ed at one time at the Fort Worth
yards, and police werc called out
to untangle traffic jams.
Thc Associated Press said preli-
minary figures at Fort Worth-show
ed 16.759 cattle handled during
thc day. There was a possibility
that revised figures would go above
the all-time record of 16,954.
San Antonio had a record Thurs-
d«y with cattle receipts at 1,800
Houston handled 700 cattlc and
2,000 calvcs. An all-timc high for
hogs was paid at San Antonio in
a few instances—27c a pound. Th?
previous high was,25c.
So terrific was thc rush to mar-
ket at Fort Worth that buyers had'
difficulty in establishing prices, the
United Press reported. With thc
supply growing into a tremendous
wave of beef and pork, sellers
found they had arrived a day late.
With more than 15,000 cattlc and
calves, 1,500 hogs and 4 500 sheep
llnd up in trucks at the gates,
the market opened lower.

Soviet Embassy
Voices Complaint
Against FBI
RUSSIANS ATTENDING
CONGRESS REGISTER AS
FOREIGN AGENTS
' WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 <U.fi; -
Die Sovici Embassy today- ac-
cused the justice department of
adding difficulties to "establish-
ment of cultural ties between us
and the people of the United Stat-
es."
The Embassy described a justice
department demand that Russian
delegates to the Slav Congress in
New York register as foreign a-
gents as being "compatible neither
with the personal dignity of these
outsanding people nor with the
self-respect of the country which
they represent."
The Sovici attitude toward the
justice department action was
n.ade known by Michael S. Vavi-
lov, first secretary of thc Russian
embassy, at a press conference,
ft was the third press conference
at the Embassy since December,
1941.
As a result of th0 justice de-
partment's "demand that the dele-
gates register as foreign agents,
Russia recalled the 17-mernber So-
viet delegation to the congress.
Three delegates from other coun-
tries, however, went ahead and
registered. They included two Bul-
garians-arid one-Cze?h. Rev. Frnn-
tiseck Fiala, the lastest to regis-
ter.
The justice department contend-
ed the visitors were not bona fide
delegates but were guests of Amer-
ican delegates. The group had clai-
med diplomatic status.

creases and unrestricted pricc fix-
ing in proposed new wage-price
executive orders. But .they said
hc should go all the way and abo- >
lish l&vernment authority ovtr|
wage •• its.
In Cleveland, wage increases a-
vcraging 12 1-2 cents an hour to-
day were granted to 80,000 employ-
es in the glass industry.
Federal; conciliators joined state i
and city officials today in attempts!

day follows a commendation hc is-
sued last week on thc action of
